P&O Europe Cruise Reviews

Have sailed on Iona quite a few times and it’s got worse every time. With all the cabins on board, only 1 suite is disabled accessible, none of the conservatory mini suites are accessible and most of the balcony cabins have a pillar in the cabin which hinders movement of wheelchairs. None of the inside cabins are fully accessible. None of the pools are accessible unless you want to be hoisted ...

Would not recommend this ship Caught Novovirus I know of 3 others but heard there was lots more but no official word about it . 3 people airlifted off ship Cabin on 17th floor a nightmare below sunbathing deck and late at night early morning moving chairs about to clean deck . Wardrobes and bed creaking and opening on there own and ship swayed badly maybe due to be so high up . ...

The value of the cruise was good but once onboard the experience is not great. The ship is tired and old , really needs a modern update. MY cabin was in need of updating and cabin staff just seem stressed and miserable. We were allocated a great table at The Oriental but no Sommelier so the poor waiting staff are stressed out trying to get the hot food and cope with taking drinks orders which is ...

Embarkation superb; atrium pathetically underwhelming; cabin spotless and stewardess excellent; ship tired and has the feel of being past it's sell by date; In-house shows very professional; singers average; comedians pretty dire and smutty (the two go together),and in the main not funny; cost cutting everywhere, flogging you stuff at every opportunity; food average only; tea and coffee dire (not ...

I have been on ten cruises in total (four different companies), with my teenage children and without so I think I have enough experience to give a fair and honest review. This is my second P&O cruise, the first one was four nights from Southampton, this one from Tenerife. We will never go and P&O again. The good - rooms were in good order and beds comfortable. We did ask to be near my ...

Beware of the spa! 2 treatments booked and paid for before joining the ship. During one treatment, the assistant said one aspect had been booked but I could have all 3 if I wished. No additional price was mentioned. Before leaving they apologised and said they'd made an error by adding the whole cost to my onboard account when I'd prepaid, and they'd need to reset my account, and needed a ...

Ok, chose this short break as an early Christmas do for my wife and I, the ship needs either a total revamp or scrapping, the archaic plumbing system is not fit for purpose, blocked overflowing toilets in the cabin happened three times in four days, the last day the bathroom was unusable for 8 hours due to failure of the vacuum system for the toilets. Sewage leaking across the bathroom floor, ...

First Cruise with P & O and extremely disappointing. Definitely not good value for money. The ship is old and tired. We had a wonderful cabin steward, who was helpful and friendly. Our cabin was clean but in need of a whole refurbishment. The first night we dined in The Meridian, the service was awful, we waited 50 minutes for our starter, then 50 minutes for our main. The wine arrived with ...

We did Canary Islands cruise in November 2022 on Azura and it was fabulous so persuaded our friends to come with us on an identical cruise in November 2023 and how embarrassed were we ? It was dire especially the service which was absolutely awful especially in the restaurants. We have cruised with P&O numerous times indeed are Mediterranean Peninsular members and have nearly always been happy or ...

Where to start Booked this nearly 18 months ago, got a really good price for a full suite for myself my other half my son and my mother. Our first with P&O previous sailings with Princess and RC the noticeable cutbacks began at the terminal, on previous sailings had Porters on hand to take bags off us however this time had to queue up to put our own bags through the chute etc now this is ...
